This Day In Sox History...December 11
I thought Wimpy was a great announcer and a good player. His imitation of Mr. Haney(Pat Buttram) from Green Acres every time Chris Haney of the Royals pitched made me laugh every time.

Sox Quote of the Day...
What a fraud. There is a very strong demand of people who want to kick hm in the nads' though.

Max Stassi Acquired
how is hackenbergs defense? he takes a few walks and he doesn't get hurt. he might end up playing in the bigs for a long time.

Rule 5 Draft - Sox take LHP Shane Drohan from Boston
Angel Bastardo. Oxymoron. Greatest name I've ever heard.

Sox Sign Erick Fedde - 2 years, $15 million
If his ERA is under 4.50 at the break, flip him for a prospect.

Braves acquire Jarred Kelenic
Kelenic improved quite a bit last year. How good can someone get while striking out more than 35% of the time is the 64 dollar question.

Giolito speaks...
always thought jerry manuel was a dope too. his bullpen moves were head scratchers most of the time.

Cease To Padres per Passan
nothing. dodgers keep real prospects. the guys they trade become magic beans real quick.

Why Sox would be better off drafting 7th and w/ worst 2024 MLB record (best lottery odds for 2025)...Ethan Holliday
don't forget to blow out the pilot light first.

Seby Zavala traded to Mariners (old friend alert)
Seby was bad, but he had a flair for the dramatic. One or two games a year he did something cool.

DeJong to Sox
and his feelings. poor tim.

Bummer to ATL
middleton might work out.

DeJong to Sox
Bobby Knight fan. I've always thought you don't have to be a jackass to succeed.

Bummer to ATL
not to change the subject, but the bears are a bunch of stiffs too. so it's not just the sox.

Bummer to ATL
the one thing that makes me think we may regret this, is that the Braves hire and retain coaches based on their ability to instruct. if we had traded Bummer to someone like us, i wouldn't worry about a possible rebound. part of me wants Aaron to have a good year just to spite the Sox' good buddy coaching staff of recent vintage.

Bummer to ATL

The latest Garfien Podcast: What is a "Spa Day"?
statistically speaking, AB was a league average RF last year .986 field % vs league .987. range factor 1.99,1.88 vs. league 1.92,1.89. his defense was average. historically he has been a little above average. he was nowhere near awful. AV and GSheets were awful. when people over state facts they begin to lose credibility. look for a small bounce bank this year. he is overpaid, but he didn't offer himself the contract. when you have a rotten organization, you have to do some thing to attract employees.

Who do you want or think will replace Benetti?
I hope it's one of those chimpanzees that knows sign language. face it. if he's any good he'll leave in 2-3 years if not before. don't wish for anybody too good.

Minnesota will reduce payroll in 2024
if the twinkies lowered their payroll to 26million, we could probably break out the greatest line in dumb and dumber. "so you're sayin' there's a chance?"

Benetti to Tigers
he was at his best with the sox. "reinhorn" duo drove him into the cubs open arms.
